Annual Brookhaven Home & Garden Show Returns to Holtsville Ecology Site

Farmingville, NY – Highway Superintendent Daniel P. Losquadro is announcing the return of the annual Brookhaven Town Home & Garden Show, benefiting the Holtsville Ecology Site. The show, which will once again run for two weekends, will be held March 25 and 26 and April 1 and 2.

The event will feature dozens of vendor exhibits including: landscaping, garden centers, awnings, stonework, driveways, garden structures, sprinklers, siding & windows, interior décor, gutters and more. In addition, with paid admission, visitors can participate in free educational workshops and hands-on classes for children. Classes and workshops are subject to change; a comprehensive schedule of seminars will be available at www.brookhavenny.gov as the event nears.

“After a long winter, residents are always eager to come out and enjoy the wide array of home improvement ideas our vendors have on display,” Superintendent Losquadro said. “The Home and Garden Show is a wonderful opportunity for residents to support local businesses and reinvest in our local economy. From building outdoor fireplaces and getting more creative with landscaping design to replacing fencing and walkways or even putting in a hot tub, the Home and Garden Show features some innovative ways to enhance your home, garden and property this spring.”

The show will run March 25-26 and April 1-2, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. The cost of admission is $6 for adults; children 16 and under are free. Parking is free, as is the opportunity to walk through the animal preserve, which is home to more than 100 injured or non-releasable wild and farm animals and will be open on Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

“All proceeds from this event will be used to benefit the Holtsville Ecology Site, one of our Town’s hidden gems,” Losquadro continued. “Over the years, so many families have enjoyed and appreciated all the Ecology Site has to offer. Investing the proceeds from this event directly back into the Ecology Site will help to ensure there is adequate funding to support its continued operations.”
